You might have noticed that we skipped the February 18 launch rumor for the GTX Titan that has been floating around the net, We were told that such a hard-launch date is simply impossible. Of course, the 18th of February did bring something new, what appears to be an official set of Nvidia slides for the GTX Titan launch.

According to the leaked slides, the GTX Titan is exactly what has been rumored for a while, an impressive beast based on Nvidia's GK110 GPU. It features 14 SMX clusters for a total of 2688 CUDA cores and works at 837MHz base and 876 boost clock. It is capable of providing 4.5 Teraflops of single and 1.3 Teraflops of double precision compute performance and features 6GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at 6000MHz and paired up with a 384-bit memory interface.

The TDP is set at 250W and it needs one 6-pin and one 8-pin PCI-Express power connectors. The cooler appears to be quite similar to the blower-style cooler seen on the GTX 690, with a vapor chamber based heatsink, with an extended fin stack and advanced fan control. It features two DVI, HDMI and one DisplayPort outputs and has quad-SLI support.

According to Nvidia slides, the GTX Titan scales pretty well in SLI and brings much better performance with lower acoustics when compared to the GTX 680. Egypthardware site posted a benchmark slide that compares the Titan with the GTX 680 and the Radeon HD 7970 GHz Edition.

The official launch should be tomorrow, while availability is expected sometime next week, at least by some partners. The price is rumored to be $999, but we will know for sure tomorrow.

Following the recent AMD push with its Never Settle bundle deal, Nvidia has announced its own Free 2 Play bundle available with select Geforce GTX GPUs.

Although it does not offer impressive AAA titles like Crysis 3, Bioshock: Infinite, new Tomb Raider and others, seen in the AMD's Never Settle Reloaded bundle, it still adds US $75-$150 value to Geforce GTX 650 and higher end graphics cards. The bundle focuses on Free 2 Play games that, according to Nvidia, generate much more revenue when compared to the AAA titles.

The Geforce Free 2 Play bundle includes up to US $150 value of in-game currency in Hawken, World of Tanks and PlanetSide 2 games. The deal gets you US $75 of in-game currency for a GTX 650 or 650 Ti and US $150 for a GTX 660 or any other more expensive graphics card. The first one gets you 2050 Gold and 1 month premium in World of Tanks, "Gear Up pack" in Planetside 2 and 3600 Meteor credit in Hawken, while the US $150 one gets you 7500 Gold and 1 month premium in World of Tanks, "Premium Gear Up pack" in Planetside 2 and 7200 Meteor credit in Hawken.

In case you are one of the many that are enjoying these F2P games then your next upgrade might just well be an Nvidia based Geforce GTX graphics card.
